I've never grown it, know nothing about it.

Bought a package of Mary Washington at Home Cheapo. How do I plant these things? Pkg. says 2" deep, but google results say everything from 3" to 8" planting depth.

How far apart?

Is 6 plants enough to start a little area? Do I need 10 times as many? There are only 2 of us to eat them?

And how many years to harvest asparagus?

Summers here are hot. Too hot? I read that they like cool summers and cold winters. The cold winters I have, cool summers I don't have.

Any help appreciated.

Karen
